The stuff I forgot:

I should be really grateful that my nanny has taken to doing the dishes while the baby naps, right? And tell that damned little voice that says "this is a negative comment on your domestic abilities" to shut the hell up?

Great article in the current New Yorker on Hermann Maier and Bode Miller, the latter of whom has been my seekrit olympic skiing boyfriend since Utah. Bode Bode Bode.

When I was a nanny-type person, I would always do the dishes during naptime because I was convinced that otherwise I wasn't really earning my money. I hope this helps.

Now, when my MIL does any cleaning? THAT'S because I'm a slob who's not good enough for her son. :-)

When I was a nanny, I did dishes, laundry, etc. when the baby was sleeping. I enjoyed it. No, really.
